Barbie Sparkle Light Up Pink Fairy Doll Review

Barbie Sparkle Light Up Pink Fairy Doll
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

This doll is really interesting my 7 year old LOVES it and has both versions. When you push the button on her leg, a 'blade' in the back rotates and as it does, creates wings made out of lights. The lights are programmed so that the wings appear to be flapping and moving around, opening and closing. It's something that is hard to explain in writing but very interesting when seen. Of all the electronic wings Barbies, this was definitely the best concept. The only downside is that when the wings aren't spinning, there is the 'blade' left in the back rather than wings. I would have liked it better if the blade had been encased between transparent filament wings so that she was pretty when the blade wasn't whirring and creating her light-based fluttering wings.

The outfit she is wearing is nice, as is her hair and styling. Note that the legs and arms do not bend so she is a standing/flying doll only. But in my opinion, something original and different and well worth the price for a little girl who loves fairies.

In theory this doll is cute. You push the button and the lights spin giving the illusion of wings fluttering. However, peice that spins on her back is kind of hard and spins so fast that it hurts if you put your finger in it, kind of like sticking your finger into a spinning fan! I finally had to take it away from my 5 year old when it actually cut her finger! Too bad because it is kind of neat, but it just wasn't safe.

I bought this for my niece for her birthday a few weeks ago. She loves it!! (I also find it pretty entertaining--shh, don't tell anyone!) The toy works great--I'm not sure why the other reviewers had issues as this has not been my experience, but you do have to say specific phrases and you have to speak when the belly button light is on. We especially love the "Dance with me!" feature...we have a mini-dance party every time I come over. I also really love the material the doll is made of--jelly, squishy, fun to squeeze. I'm actually going to get the Logan Fijit for my friend's daughter...her name is also Logan! Love it!

My 11 yo just had to have this for her birthday. I was skeptical that she'd be a little on the old side of the targeted market but actually I think it works that she is older. At this tween age she is less about playing for hours on end and more about turning Serafina on to say goodnight, dance or to say hello in the morning. She likes showing her off to her friends and Serafina is a big hit with them. She likes that she looks cute sitting on her bedside table. I do think she is a definitely more fairly priced now (under $40). She is truly interactive and obviously at the under $50 price break you get what you pay for a cheaper interactive toy that isn't true robotic perfection. Still in my opinion she does what she is advertised to do as long as you change out her demo batteries to nicer batteries. Addressing the battery draining comments I put a set of Duracel batteries in her mid September and she is still going strong with some sort of daily play. She isn't slowing down yet.

She is surprisingly squishy and soft. She is easily wipeable. Her construction seems to be sound. She doesn't come across as cheap in terms of construction. She'd hold up well even with a young child.

My almost 8 year old wants the same toy in a different color for her birthday. I was waiting to see how my 11 yo liked her before I made the final decision to gift her to my younger daughter. She's a keeper she'll be a hit with her too.

Finally, as a side note my 10 month old great niece absolutely adores this toy! She loves watching Serafina in the dance mode and it held her attention for a very long time. Anyone with a toddler knows this is a true feat! While I wouldn't hand her over to a toddler, I'm glad we have her around for toddler entertainment too when the need arises.

I bought the Fijit for my daughter after a friend of mine who had bought it for her daughter recommended it. We couldn't be happier, so I am surprised to read other people's negative reviews. I think people need to remember that this is a toy, not a human being :). We did have some problems with voice recognition at first, but once I changed the batteries it worked fine. My daughter can't get enough of this toy, and its a great way to keep her entertained and happy while I cook dinner or get things done around the house. I also love that this toy is interactive and my daughter LOVES to dance so this gets her up and dancing and singing around the living room. It's really cute.

Honest reviews on FIJIT Friends Serafina Interactive Toy

My daughter saw this on TV...she had to have it. She is 6, I made a deal that we would split the cost, so we did. Poor thing, she even wants to return it now. It claims it will say 150 things, well it does not, it will tell you the same things over and over. It continually says, "What you want to do now, huh?"...then you get 3 choices..tell me a joke, dance with me and chat with me....when you ask these things it has about 3-5 things it will respond with in each mode, after 1 hour we had heard it all, maybe several times. If it did what it said, it would be very cute, but it does not. The second day we changed the batteries, because it would stop dancing after 3 seconds when starting to dance to one song...or wouldn't reply properly when you ask it to do something at the proper time.Ie: Tell me a joke, she would say, knock-knock, my daughter would say, "Who's there?", she would tell her..."You should say who's there silly"-UGH!

Read this review to your daughter when she begs you for this!

So the most common complaints I have heard are that the toy does not recognize phrases or doesn't respond correctly etc. So here is the problem. You have to READ the directions. There is a little light on the belly that LIGHTS UP after the Fijit responds or asks you a question, that is the cue to you or your child to then respond back to your Fijit. If you don't speak loud enough, clear enough, then naturally it's not going to respond correctly. So is this a toy for little ones with speech that us mom's find endearing? Probably not, but if you want to play with your child with this toy, then it's perfectly fine. My 2 year old LOVES this toy and so do my 5, 9, and 10 year olds. It's taken a beating down the staircase numerous times and works great still so is it durable? YOU BETCHA! My only problem with it is that it runs through batteries like kids through Halloween candy. Glad the price dropped on it. It was overpriced, but now that its under the forty dollar mark I think it's worth it.

I got this for my daughter's 9th birthday. She got an american girl doll for her 8th birthday, but I refuse to pay $40 for an outfit from the American Girl brand, my own clothes don't even cost that much. This outfit was high quality, and best of all it fit the American Girl Doll perfectly. My only complaint is that the skirt is a little short, but we had some doll leggings laying around and fixed the problem easily (at least until summer when we don't need leggings anymore). Good value, good fit, I would highly recommend it.

I thought I had avoided the Amercian Doll insanity with my 10yo daughter, but then my boss purchased one for her for Christmas. So naturally, as is the order of things in life, my daughter mentioned that "Nicole" was getting bored wearing the jeans and tee shirt she came with. So we went on the AG website and quite frankly the clothes I buy for my human daughter are cheaper. Off to Amazon to the rescue! Nice outfit and the price is much less than AG clothing and it has quelled my daughter's and apparantly "Nicole's" need for varity for the moment. I would purchase from this seller again. My only minor complaint would be...I dont allow my daughter to wear short skirts so I wish more of the outfits werent so..hmmm. Toddlers and Tiaras comes to mind.

This was one of the Groovy Girls I first bought and I am very pleased that I did! I'm starting up a plush doll collection for my daughter (being a collector myself) and this specific groovy girl doll makes a nice addition to the list. Although I'm very choosy with the shade of blue that I favor, I like how it turned out in this toy :) It's really nice and loveable. I especially like her hair and the fact that there are no plastic parts that might get loose when a child gets too rough with it.

The toys are really tiny, not sure why but they are easy to lose, hard to play with.

Review of Moxie Girlz Horse Riding Club Horse Cricket

Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

This horse is awesome! First, it is a pretty big horse (about a foot tall) and as if that wasn't even it moves! With a push of a button the horse will start walking and making horse noises. Then right there on the saddle is a holder for your Moxie Girlz doll. I didn't have another doll to try but I don't see why this horse could only be used for Moxie Girlz! I don't think I ever saw a horse like this that walks for kids to play with! Cricket is part of the Moxie Girlz Horse Riding Club collection and the three dolls go perfectly with this horse (but again I don't see why it wouldn't work with other dolls you may have.) My 3 year old son actually has been playing with this horse because he thinks its cool how the horse can walk, and so far we have not had any falls on our hardwood floors. I think the horse would be wobbly on carpeting but on hard floors it does just fine.

My 3 year old HAD to have this for Christmas. The horse is gorgeous and has a nice support bar to hold the rider in place (sold separately). The horse does walk and whinny on it's own with a push of a button on it's chest, however even on our hardwood floor the horse tended to topple over even without a rider on top that could change the center of gravity. We've only had it for one day, but so far not living up to expectations for the price.

I like this toy, but I wish it was a little more interactive. The horse walks, but slowly and not for very long. There is also a delay from the time you press the "walk" button untill it actually walks. I bought this for my daughters 3rd birthday, and she was thrilled to have it, but she seems to get easily frustrated at having to continually push the walk button. Maybe the age reccomendations should be for 4 and up. Three year olds are a bit lacking in patience...

The Lalaloopsy dolls are just magnificent. They are so reminiscent of the old "Rag Dolls" that I used to play with as a young girl. They are plastic, but don't let that fool you into thinking they aren't lovable. They are precious. Lalaloopsy Marina Anchors is just perfect in her little sailor's outfit and matching whale. She just brings a smile to my face! I have purchased a few of these for Christmas presents for my 4 year old niece as well as for my 6 year old niece. Both girls love these cuties. They are very durable, have clothes and accessories that can be purchased for each doll as well as Lalaloopsy chapter books and coloring books. They are also incredible to have for a daycare setup since they are SO EASY to lysol clean and disinfect. I think they are perfect for little imaginations...almost a flashback to the 50's when all the girls loved their little dolls with button eyes and single line smiles! Don't hesitate to purchase these dolls for your little ladies!

Both of my girls (3 and 5 yrs) asked for barbie pools from Santa. One got this one, one got the Glam pool. Both are very cool and did stand up to Barbie jumping and such. The extra parts are easy to pop on and offand good and bad thing... but the pool itself stays intact. I didn't really know how big it was, so I opted to get 2, but 2 girls could easily play with a Barbie each (and maybe one extra) without the pool being overcrowded. The Glam pool was sturdy, too.

This is a cute toy and my child loved it. But it isn't easy at all to put the pool liner into the pink plastic ring that goes around the top of the pool so parents get ready for a struggle lol . That plastic ring is also all that holds the pool up too so it isn't very sturdy. But my child likes it and plays with it I just have to keep an eye on her because the pool will easily tip over and make me a big mess!
